Symphony Of Motion

[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 2[/h1] You can view my initial impressions review & gameplay here: https://youtu.be/-A5p9DeA1y8 Is this better than Virtuoso? Nope, not even close. However, this is a nice app as far as music creation apps go in VR. I would say this is okay & a nice start to Early Access. It's budget-priced, so I can recommend it, but there's other's I would recommend over this one. Basically, at this time, in Early Access, you're really limited to the synthesizer, the drum kit, & the looper. That's it as far as tools that you can use. It's got some nice things like the automatic in-rhythm option that is also an option in Virtuoso so that you sound better as a beginner. You can set the metronome sound as well or a have your controllers vibrate to keep you in rhythm or you can use lights. You can also have a backing drum kit playing to inspire you. Within the drum kit & the synth, there's many different sounds you can choose from. You can also bend volume, twist you...

Ok firstly a disclaimer, I dont have a musical bone in my body. I don't play any instruments, honestly a triangle would be a push too far. But I've been messing around in this for over an hour. The sounds I've created wont ever be appreciated by anyone, but I came out of this with a smile on my face. Its gonna take a bit of patience, if ever, but i'm really enjoying myself. There's so much more to this than first playaround will open. I would like to see more tutorials, but I'm enjoying it and cant wait to see where it goes. I believe a demo is coming at some point, give it a go, just play with the sounds and perhaps yours wont sound like a cutlery in a tin pot being pushed down the stairs !!

Tested on: Quest 2, with a medium-low end gaming laptop (GTX 1650Ti, i5-10300h) I'm only commenting within a short time because the dev deserves the good rep: in my opinion this is a very cool tool to explore when you're curious about making music and feeling the benefits of a VR interface to do so. It's absolutely worth it if you're frequently going to try and play with making sounds, but it's not there to gamify the experience beyond offering introductory tutorials. It's a musical tool, not a game, and with that in mind it does exactly what it says. You can grab notes on the synth and twist the volume by turning your wrists, shake the notes you hold to modulate them, play very precisely with drums in 3d space, and have a different type of sound per hand.. and then you add the looping mechanisms and the fact that this is an early access title that already has the polish and great performance in PCVR (not encountered a single bug), and I'd say this is a title for those curious about ...
